Argentina captain Lionel Messi could not hold back tears after scoring his first goal at the World Cup, sparking widespread reactions among fans around the world.
According to reports from " The Sun ", the footballer's strong emotions are related to concerns about the health of his father, Jorge Horacio Messi.
Jorge Messi, 68, has an important role in his son's professional life, having acted as his agent and manager of his commercial activities for years.
The incident received widespread attention on Tuesday night, when Messi broke down in tears on the pitch at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, moments after scoring a hat-trick in Argentina's 3-0 win over Algeria in the tournament's opening match.
The 38-year-old's excellent performance immediately placed him among the contenders for the championship's "Golden Boot".
However, according to reports, behind Messi's emotional reaction lies concern for his father's health.
After the match, Messi declared:
" Honestly, it's something completely unrelated to sports. It's been a difficult and complicated few days ."
Later, journalist Eduardo Feinman provided details on this issue during a broadcast on Radio Mitre, one of the most watched media outlets in Argentina.
" It has to do with his father. His father is not in good health. This situation has been going on for several months, since last year. During this week there were some developments that somewhat worsened his condition and Messi is facing this personal challenge ," Feinman said.
